first blog...
Prologue
hehe.... this blog seems to come a little too late! i wanted to start blogging in may, right after my final exams. thought i could get my blog going during this summer holidays... well, dunno what happened?! managed to update a few pics of me & my housemates & tada... the space is left to rot!

Penang Trip (1-7 June 2006)



after the penang trip, i still had about 1 week++ to relax before starting internship. well, i spent most of the time watching tvb series that were collected during the semester. too busy then to watch, thus i have a huge library of tvb series waiting for me! i'm still wondering if i should keep them or to discard them? these media files are really eating up my harddisk space. gosh, even the external hdd is already 95% full

Final Year Dissertation
Just before our final exam, we were told to start preparing for the final year project. I've talked to a few lecturers, including daniel su, payam, & michael chung. the more people i talk to, the harder it gets for me to make up my mind. i just dunno what my interests are... finally, selvaraj sent us a list which shows the assignment of supervisor for those students who have yet to find one. guess what, i am assigned to daniel su! since he is one of the candidates as my supervisor, i decided to go along with the list. i like his style of pushing & giving deadlines before deadlines. i don't hope to repeat the scenario of SE project, where i did so much work in my final week of the semester! haha...i can only blame myself for that

Internship
16 June 2006 - the 1st day as an intern. The pc for me has not been set up yet, so the boss gave me 2 books to read. "Sam's Teach Yourself MySQL in 24 hours" & "Linux for Dummies". Wow, reading the MySQL book reminds me of exam as most of the contents are exactly similar to that of G52DBS. Phew...why do i still have to read that book?!

i only got my pc on the following week. i get to disassemble & assemble my own pc, with the help of my colleague of course. my task is to build a website for the company using php & mySQL. had to learn php in order to complete the task. its quite similar to other web programming language, but syntax holds the main difference. not a big problem for me as i have done websites before in ASP. however, designing a professinal website remains a headache to me! i must admit that i have no artistic flair to be able to come up with something attractive. i can only guarantee the functionality part; design-wise...

Accommodation
Sigh... this is 1 issue where i regretted the most! i totally ruined a friendship!

dear ling wei,
the accommodation office finally gave a reply regarding the application for the studio. i am really glad they have approved the application coz i'd have like to stay on-campus due to various reasons. however, my suppose-to-be roommate decided to stay off-campus. her mom even tried to persuade me to stay with her! i'm doomed coz i've gotta find myself a new roommate when most of the people have settled their accommodation problem. it must be punishment from god! i was quite worried for a few days...if you so happened to read my blog, i must tell you i'm sorry once more!
i know you have been thru a tough time.
although you've said the problem has been settled, i think i still owe you on this.
really sorry!

i finally went back to Unim @ 1 Aug as there was a feedback session with daniel su. George, under the same supervisor, also went that day, and he brought along a friend, Tze Hui. She just came back from uk a few days ago. we went to see Selena & Donald & hope that they would allow Tze Hui to take over my rommmate's place. thank god it was approved & luckily i've got someone i know as my roommate! thx to george too but i just don't wanna say it in front of him! haha...

Epilogue
i guess that's more than enough for my 1st blog. the above written is a summary of what happened to me in the period of June, July & 1st week of August. hope that i can continue to update this blog as frequently as possible. till then, adios...
